The LG Nexus 4 was lost at a bar (no, really)

Remember all of that hubbub about an iPhone 4 prototype being left in a bar a couple years back? Yup, that happened with a Nexus 4 prototype as well. Back in September, the bartender at a popular San Francisco bar came across an interesting phone. Seeing so many phones every night left at the establishment, he didn't think much of it. When a patron at the bar that was more in tune with the current Google rumor mill noticed it was the LG Nexus 4, they knew they had an important device on their hands.

As the story goes, the bartender was quickly in contact directly with security detail at Google, and eventually arranged a meeting to retrieve the device. It's quite a story, and we recommend you take a look at the source link for the full saga (and some more pictures). We've also got the video of the device for you after the break.

Actually, it sounds like the same story, except that the N4 didn't end up in the hands of a stupid Gawker blogger that wouldn't give up the chance at a hot scoop. For Apple, they escalated it from there. For Google, the guy who found the phone was cooperative.

Here is the biggest BS of the whole story, the Nexus 4 is NOT, I said NOT going to come with KLP. Is wired even in touch with the computing world anymore? At the very least they are the absolute fringe at this point.

Yeah! the person for one did not pick the device up and show the back of it to verify it was infact the LG Nexus 4 and it was so damn dark that we could not make out if this was infact a Galaxy Nexus or the LG? :-(

Can I just say that the "screen" of the phone is moving around on the phones surface. It doesn't actually look like it was even the phones screen was ever turned on. Probably some fake model made and then a video of a nexus device turning on.
